In the book's British and Canadian versions, Snape's wording in the scene mentioned above, "and even stopper death," is somewhat ambiguous; some readers have suggested that it means placing death in a bottle. This seems overly simplistic, as poisons are so common, both in the Muggle and Wizarding worlds, that they hardly merit mention. The more likely meaning is to prevent Death from acting, stoppering it inside a bottle. In the US / Scholastic version of the books, this phrase appears instead as "and even put a stopper to death." As we learn later in the series, the US version of Snape's speech is better aligned with his actual meaning, though many editors feel that the original British wording is more elegant.
 
Harry and Ron constantly getting lost shows the castle's magical qualities and its overall enormity. Hogwarts harbors countless secrets, many that become important later in the series. Because the castle is so confusing, Harry, Ron, Neville, and Hermione will later end up in the third floor corridor; escaping Filch, they enter that corridor by accident, and will thereby learn something veryp important to the overall story.
 
Although Neville says his family believed he might have been a "Muggle", a more accurate description would be a [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Squib|"Squib."]] Without specifically mentioning yet what exactly they are, the author appears to be dropping a hint regarding their existence in wizard society. It will be learned later that Squibs are born into wizard families, but through some genetic quirk, lack any magical ability. In addition to the pure-bloods, half-bloods, and Muggle-borns noted in the above "Analysis" section, Squibs are yet another, though tiny, division within that social order. They are polar opposite to Muggle-borns, born into a family that they are completely different from. Unlike Muggle-borns, who are identified early on and brought into wizard society, Squibs are often treated as outcasts, and encouraged to integrate themselves into Muggle society. Having been raised in a purely magical household, however, a Squib would likely find it difficult to adapt to Muggle society, and have the additional burden of hiding their wizard affiliations.

Considering the connections between Harry and Neville, revealed in the fifth book, it is interesting to note that they are polar opposites: while Harry's Muggle family tried to "squash the magic out of him," the Longbottoms tried to force-feed Neville magic. We will find out that, according to [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Sybill Trelawney|Trelawney's]] [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Prophecy|prophecy]], it could have been either Neville or Harry who would end up facing Voldemort; it might be interesting to speculate, as Harry does later, what would have happened had Voldemort thought that Neville, being pure-blood wizard, was the infant the prophecy referred to.
 
The social stigma associated with having a Squib relative is mentioned two other times. In speaking about his own family, while aboard the Hogwarts Express in ''Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone'', Ron says he has a relative who is an accountant, but his family rarely mentions herhim. And we will see, in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Deathly Hallows|''Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows'']], that when [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ariana Dumbledore|Dumbledore's sister]] was hidden from the neighbours due to her mental affliction, the immediate, though incorrect, assumption by others was that she was a Squib.

* "... the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Draught of Living Death|Draught of Living Death]]." Preparation of this potion appears in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Half-Blood Prince/Chapter 9|''Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince'']], where it is used as a device to show the superiority of the marginal notes in the textbook Harry is using over the standard text. While the UK / Canadian version of the book does not include this passage, in the US / Scholastic edition, Dumbledore, bargaining with [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Draco Malfoy|Draco]] [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Half-Blood Prince/Chapter 27|late in ''Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince'']], mentions that if Draco wants to hide from [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lord Voldemort|Voldemort]], it is possible to make him and his entire family seem dead. While the technique is never mentioned, it is quite possible that it includes this potion.
* "As for monkshood and wolfsbane, they are the same plant, which also goes by the name of aconite..." possibly foreshadows the arrival of Remus Lupin in the third book.
* "Where would you find a [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Bezoar|bezoar]]?" A vital part of an antidote Harry is brewing in Potions class in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Goblet of Fire/Chapter 22|''Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire'']], it is noteworthy because Harry, agitated by the proximity of the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Yule Ball|Yule Ball]], forgets it. A bezoar constitutes Harry's entire answer to an antidote quiz in Potions class [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Half-Blood Prince/Chapter 18|''Harry Potter

and the Half-Blood Prince'']], and reappears shortly after that where Harry uses it to save Ron's life.
